  1. An essential experience for hardcore fans and those still not convinced of van Dyk's power.

    Few DJs of the last decade have made club beats shimmer and glisten the way he has. [28 Feb 2003, p.80]
  3. Van Dyks's segues are so effortless it's easy to take them for granted, but the precision with which he moves between styles and tempos is a thing of beauty.

    Despite the fresh reworking, tracks like "For An Angel" and "Another Way" retain the heartfelt with synthetic, catchy cores that made them such beloved trance anthems in the first place. [Mar 2003, p.99]

    I give this album a 10 because it takes you to a place that PVD creates and turns it into reality. Anamacion is by far his best peace, yet!
